MinusOne if old.

Edit: Mods could you add Q2 release on the title?

 

[Intheflorsh]

Wow, that thing is gorgeous.

 

[Aiii]

Aside from the already insane low price... Only 30 Euro's between 16 and 64GB? Wow.

 

[PirateKing]

Am I reading that price right? I wonder how much in Aus would it cost.

 

[Loomba]

So good, and the price difference between the two sizes are so small, really no reason not to get the bigger version.

 

[Intheflorsh]

For comparison, a 64gb iPhone 5S costs $849

 

[Alpende]

Dat price...

 

[Rafy]

Added SEK, DKK, HKD and NTD prices. Guys, the Chinese went crazy! thank god they are shipping to Italy. That phone will be mine. I still can't believe it.

 

[bobbytkc]

I'd imagine that after so many years of making stuff for other people, China will be making very competitive stuff of their own in the near future. This phone looks great from the specs.

 

[Aiii]

For comparison, a 64gb iPhone 5S costs $399.

$849*

 

[firehawk12]

350? How??

 

[thuway]

Day fucking -1.

 

[Prophet Steve]

Dayum, great price.

The Nexus phones were one thing in terms of price performance, but this is incredible. Not going to get a new phone for a long time though.

 

[Intheflorsh]

$849*

Oh, right.

 

[Loomba]

For comparison, a 64gb iPhone 5S costs $399.

lolno

 

[Fusebox]

For comparison, a 64gb iPhone 5S costs $399

I'll take 10 thanks. Do you accept Paypal?

Am I reading that price right? I wonder how much in Aus would it cost.

Is it even compatible with our band frequency thingy?

 

[Vilam]

I can't even comprehend what I'm reading. Those specs... that price... damn! Is this some fly by wire no name company that surprised everyone by announcing this or am I just out of the loop? Are people expecting this thing to actually be a high quality, well built flagship phone? Can I use it on Verizon? So many questions...

No name is the reason why this phone is so cheap. Much of what you usually pay is the brand.

There is a FAQ answering most of your questions on the forums, but their site is currently down because it's getting hammered. It is expected to be high quality, and the company was founded by an OPPO executive.

Also, I added press links and a link to a hands on article by engadget in the OP.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

hmmm, this might be worth buying as a back up phone at that price.

 

[user_nat]

So that seems like a good deal. Mighty tempting.

 

[Radec]

wow, that price.

the looks is not too shabby either.

 

[ComputerMKII]

Amazing offer. Too bad I don't need to replace my smartphone yet.

 

[elektrixx]

If there's no Australian version at launch I'll refuse to buy one at any future date.

 

[Kreunt]

looks like ill finally be replacing my S2

 

[Art Teitlebaum]

I don't like that invitation hurdle. But the phone looks fantastic, specs-wise and design.

 

[Cerity]

well the galaxy s5 was estimated to cost samsung $256 per unit in just parts. These guys are obviously doing a minimal mark up. Being based in china helps a load too.

 

[massoluk]

Oh my. Suddenly having buyer remorse from buying the s5

 

[runningjoke]

Stereo speakers on the bottom are perfect for watching vertical videos

 

[sarcastor]

ooooh wood backings

 

[Qvoth]

looks like ill finally be replacing my S2

i found my doppelganger!
i'm definitely gonna look for this the next time i'm in hongkong

 

[Axiom]

It's a really sexy phone with a slick looking UI.

Considering that's my primary motivator in switching to a new brand, they have my attention.

 

[BPoole]

Looks really nice. It's strange they used the Crysis 3 theme for their video though

 

[Rafy]

CNET just gave a release date of May 16. Also swappable backs like the MotoX.

 

[FelixOrion]

ooooh wood backings

gimme that shit now.

 

[immortal-joe]

Lau (CEO): "Therefore products should go back to basics: the users must feel good when using our products. If the users want something, we'll do it."

I want a 4.7" or 5" version please

 

[Staab]

5.5" ?
Jesus, what happened to hand sized phones...

Otherwise this looks great but come on I don't want a Galaxy Note, I want a phone that fits in my pocket and my hand comfortably :/

 

[SpOOkyO]

That is one yummy phone and the price is just insane.

The invitation system is weird thought.

 

[ComputerMKII]

It's a really sexy phone with a slick looking UI.

It's a shame they adopted flat design. Google's hybrid UI (a bit of flat design but not too much) was OK in my opinion.

That is one yummy phone and the price is just insane.

The invitation system is weird thought.

They did this to better assess the demand, since they cannot afford to have many unsold units.

 

[Shadownet]

So god damn sexy!!

But 5.5 is too big for me. I can barely hold my S5 without struggling to type one handed. If they release a 4.8 or 5 inch version them I'm all in.

 

[Archpath1]

Haha right after looking at the video i get hit with a message from TMobile to buy the S5

This thing is hot

 

[.la1n]

That is one gorgeous phone.

 

[Baron Doggystyle von Woof]

ooooh wood backings

Damn, wood backing is so sexy.

 

[Loomba]

They did this to better assess the demand, since they cannot afford to have many unsold units.

Surely these will be sold out almost straight away, right?

 

[Qvoth]

so that 299 HKD for 16gb version...
299 HKD is around 38 USD lol, that's gotta be a mistake

 

[Tacitus_]

Woah that thing is cheap.

 

[ComputerMKII]

Surely these will be sold out almost straight away, right?

If this happens then they priced the phone too low

 

[The Boat]

I'm looking at my iphone and it has two speakers at the bottom, are they not stereo?

Anyway, interesting proposition, let's see how the build quality is. I'm tired of super expensive phones being the norm.

 

[Rafy]

It probably is. What really surprised me was that it comes with GApps, chinese phone rarely do!

No,one is a speaker and one is a microphone
